Based on the best-selling Saudi fantasy novel by Ibraheem Abbas, HWJN is set in a world where djinn have crossed a traditional barrier and are living invisibly among humans. Hwjn's life is turned upside down when a human family moves into his own family's Jeddah home, oblivious to the fact it is already occupied by magical beings. Open-hearted Hwjn (Baraa Alem) is increasingly fascinated by these alien interlopers, especially by beautiful Sawsan, a medical student (Nour Alkhadra). Could a portal open between their respective dimensions? And if it did, would that bring about harmony, or a war between the worlds? Sumptuous and romantic, Hwjn takes us on a journey into a kingdom of the imagination where anything seems possible.
